The next Superstar Shakeup is planned for mid-April, so I figured I'd play around with things a bit here. The last one I did is still getting hits, so since I haven't done it in a while this seems like a good time to give it another go. Before I get started, I'm making a … Continue reading Superstar Shakeup 2019 Ideas
2018 Year in Review
With only a few days left, I am going to attempt to do another Year in Review thing here. If you've read any of my previous attempts, sometimes I finish for every thing I talk about (books, movies, wrestling, TV) and sometimes I barely finish one category. Wrestling gets the most traffic around these parts … Continue reading 2018 Year in Review
TLC 2018 Thoughts
First, the quick and easy stuff: The pre-show matches were fine. The Cruiserweight Title Match between Buddy Murphy and Cedric Alexander was good while the Guitar Match between Elias and Bobby Lashley did what it needed to do. The Cruiserweight division has been good most of the year and it's good to hear people chanting … Continue reading TLC 2018 Thoughts
Reevaluating WrestleMania 34
WrestleMania 34 definitely is one of those shows that can be filed under Things That Did Not Go According to Plan. It seemed like all of us were so super hyped going in, but when it was over most of us were pretty damn deflated for a lot of different reasons. So what happened? Was … Continue reading Reevaluating WrestleMania 34
Extreme Rules Thoughts
First the quick and easy: The pre-show stuff was good. Sin Cara showed he can still go and Andrade Cien Almas is legit if you haven't watched him before he got called up. Remember though that things like he and Zelina Vega doing the tranquillo pose together during the match are going to be as … Continue reading Extreme Rules Thoughts
Money in the Bank 2018/Takeover Chicago Thoughts
Takeover Chicago Three great, match of the year candidates. The opener for the tag titles is the best tag team match I've seen this year. Orney Lorcan and Danny Burch were made, winning over and earning the respect of a crowd that was cheering the more well known heels the Undisputed Era. Ricochet and Velveteen … Continue reading Money in the Bank 2018/Takeover Chicago Thoughts
Backlash 2018 Thoughts
As a lot of you said yesterday morning there wasn't a whole lot of buzz going into this one. I was getting vibes of Fastlane earlier this year when a lot of people were calling for doom and gloom and we got pleasantly surprised. This show......was not that, and got soundly trashed on social media … Continue reading Backlash 2018 Thoughts
WWE Road to WrestleMania 2018
As was the case last year, the Road to WrestleMania tour came through locally here so I took in the show. With two weeks left until the biggest show of the year I didn't expect anything earth shattering but went in hoping for a good, entertaining show which we did indeed get. I've seen most … Continue reading WWE Road to WrestleMania 2018
Daniel Bryan’s back! Now what?
Well......he's back! The official word came down from WWE today that Daniel Bryan is indeed cleared to wrestle again. So of course that means he's back for WrestleMania and beyond. I'm guessing that he'll work some kind of limited schedule, more frequently than Brock Lesnar does but not out on the road several nights a … Continue reading Daniel Bryan’s back! Now what?
Wrestling Top Fives of 2017
2017 is winding down, so I'm going to attempt once again to do some year in review stuff. Maybe I'll actually finish it this time. There was a lot of good stuff in the wrestling world this year, both in and out of WWE, and I didn't get to see all of it so you're … Continue reading Wrestling Top Fives of 2017
